Smile Rebuilt head, Car wont IDLE!

Long story short. rebuilt head,everything is connected. Car idles at 300 rpms. if i give it any throttle it knocks at 3000 and dies. then it wont idle again unless i let it sit for an hour. i think its something wrong with the fuel

BECAUSE i pulled the fuse for the fuel pump to relieve pressure to pull the head. it was out for two weeks as i was waiting for springs and valves n shit. once i put everything together, i turned the crank by hand to make sure the i didnt **** up the timing to hit a valve. then i dry cranked it with the starter for at least 30 seconds and it sounded like it had great compression. so thats when i put fuel fuse back in. turned the ignition on and let the pump run for about a minute and it started fine but idle just but ****s 300rmps. if i dont touch the throttle it just idles on forever at 300. i havent let it idle for the 10minutes to let the ecu relearn for the simple factthat i dont believe the idle control would affect how the ecu runs the car on throttle. i really thing its the fuel filter/regulator/(or)pump. any ideas suggesttsions ?

I'm going to leave this thread here to see if you get any local response but I STRONGLY encourage you to look at the more specialized forums.
